IN SHELTER OBSERVATIONS:: Though he has shown fear-based behaviors and hesitations in his kennel, Jay-Jay has allowed leashing from handlers he has become familiar with. When taken outside he used the facilities for several minutes and sniffed around. After time, he checked in with handlers occasionally and gradually became comfortable enough to sniff handlers to collect information. While Jay-Jay has sniffed hands when approached for greeting, no attempts were made to pet Jay-Jay, so there is no feedback on how he will respond to it.

BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION:: NEW HOPE ONLY

Behavior Asilomar: TM – Treatable-Manageable

Recommendations:: No children (under 13),Place with a New Hope partner

Recommendations comments:: _X_Place with a New Hope partner: Due to all noted concerns displayed in a home environment in addition to behavior in shelter, we recommend Jay-Jay be placed with a New Hope placement partner who is able to provide an experienced adult-only foster home. A period of decompression is recommended to allow Jay-Jay to acclimate comfortably to his new environment; force-free, reward based training only is advised when introducing Jay-Jay to new and unfamiliar situations. Consultation with a professional trainer/behaviorist is highly recommended for guidance to safely manage/modify any behavior Jay-Jay presents with outside of the care centers.

Potential challenges comments:: _X_Fearful/potential for defensive aggression:Jay-Jay has displayed threatening behavior during his stay in our care centers when uncomfortable; guidance from a professional trainer/behaviorist is recommended to assess behavior after decompression in a new home environment. Force-free, reward based training is advised when introducing or exposing Jay-Jay to new and unfamiliar situations. _X_Resource guarding: Jay-Jay’s previous owner notes that he may snap when his food bowl is approached. We recommend that Jay-Jay be left alone while eating, and that food guarding behavior modification steps (available at ASPCApro.org) be utilized if this behavior is problematic in his future home. Nothing should ever be taken directly out of Jay-Jay’s mouth, and any time something is removed he should be rewarded with a high value treat or toy. He should be taught the “drop” cue and trade-up games. _X_On leash reactivity: Jay-Jay is reported to be highly dog reactive on leash in line with what has been observed in the care center. Jay-Jay lunges, growls and barks in the direction of the dogs and remains difficult to refocus.

***BEING TERRIBLY OVERLOOKED** Poor JAY JAY doesn’t stand a chance. He has so few comments on this thread and Facebook. He doesn’t stand a chance of surviving today unless some super hero comes and saves him. Please share and pledge. Please be his super hero.

I am very afraid for Jay Jay..A very beautiful boy, but doesn’t seem he had the best of training..He is being given up because owner is moving..Not because of his behavior…Jay Jay seems to have lived a very sheltered life..According to owner he is mainly a inside dog, and uses wee wee pads..It’s no wonder he doesn’t like strangers, and is reactive to other dogs when he is walked outside..He is very friendly with people he knows..He is friendly if someone approaches him, but doesn’t like people who wears head coverings like hats and hoods…He is very excitable, and loves to play with balls..He was very friendly, and playful with the 16 year old lives in the home He doesn’t have a bite history, but does resource guard…According to ACC, Although he has fear based behaviors, and hesitation in his kennel..He allows handlers that he is use to to put his leash on,,When outside he sniffs around a little, but checks in with his handler, and sniffs their hand, but they haven’t petted him.. They did not do an assessment on Jay Jay because of his behavior..I’m not going to sugar coat this..Jay Jay is in huge trouble, and he is going to need a guardian angel to survive today, unless he gets his miracle, and someone with much compassion, and training experience comes forward. This poor boy lacks in socialization..At the shelter it seems he wants to be social when he snifs the handlers hand..So there is much hope for him..He’s ony three years old..Still young enough to learn from the right person..Please don’t let Jay Jay die today, because of owners incompetence..Contact NH Rescue to adopt or foster JayJay, and save his life..Fostering in most cases is free, but chack with Help Desk for more information.. Share him far and wide to reach out and find his special person..Pledging gets him noticed by the rescue, and pays for his care..Time grows short..Save Jay Jay

Another huge list….10 really great dogs fighting for their lives. Let’s not let them down.
Jay-Jay is a handsome fella who really needs a chance. He could use some love, patience and guidance, and would no doubt be a great companion! #SaveJayJay Praying and sharing with lots of love and hope! 🐾💙🙏🏻

Hoping a miracle happens for little Jay-Jay! Abandoned by his family and now in this scary place fighting for his life! He is being severely overlooked. Please someone step up for this scared little boy! Please save Jay-Jay! 🐾❤️

So sad! This dog actually came from a terrible background of no training or socialising. Some people should not be dog owners. This poor dog now loses his.life because of the way they raised him. There is no bad dog just lazy bad owners. RIP SWEET boy. We failed you. 😥😔💔
